1. A method of making an optical module for use in an optical device, comprising:
- obtaining an optical component;
obtaining a relative reference mount having a registration feature configured for subsequent coupling to a reference base;
aligning the optical component to a prealigned orientation relative to the registration feature; and
fixing the optical component relative to the registration feature of the relative reference mount at the prealigned orientation.
